<VV> 63-65 FC (Shift thru) gas tank on a 61 Greenbrier?

[Brown, David]

John,

Depending on how big the holes are, POR15 makes an excellent
filler/sealer called Por Patch
(http://www.prp-porstore.com/page/por15/CTGY/Fillers) which is
impervious to fuels.  I would use that with POR15 paint on the outside
(they have silver) & then a tank sealer on the inside available from
them, or better yet, our Corvair venders.

<SNIP>.... I have a 61 Greenbrier that the previous owner actually
screwed the gas tank to the body with 5 metal screws from the inside.
I've siphoned and removed the tank, and I'm wondering if I should buy
the used 63-65 FC (shift thru) I can get from Clarks, or have the
original repaired (holes in the top from the screws)?  The rest of the
original tank is in fair shape - no rust (Scottsdale, AZ vehicle) and
few if any dents.
